INVESTOR RIGHTS AND RESTRICTIONS
Participation Right
3.1 BaM agrees that, subject to the terms provided herein, Australis has the right (the “Participation Right”), to subscribe for and to be issued as part of any Offering completed after the Closing Date at the subscription price per Offered Security pursuant to the Offering and otherwise on substantially the terms and conditions of the Offering (provided that, if Australis is prohibited by Applicable Securities Laws, the rules and policies of any stock exchange on which the Common Shares of BaM are then listed and posted for trading or other applicable laws from participating on substantially the terms and conditions of the Offering, BaM shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enable Australis to participate on terms and conditions that are as substantially similar as circumstances permit), up to such number of Offered Securities that will allow Australis to maintain a percentage ownership interest of the Common Shares, calculated on a fully-diluted basis, that is equal to its ownership interest prior to the Offering, provided that such ownership interest does not exceed 40% of the Common Shares on a fully-diluted basis after giving effect to such Offering.
-7- |
3.2 BaM will give Australis notice in writing of any proposed Offering on or prior to the date on which any such Offering is announced (the “Offering Notice”), and in any event not less than ten (10) Business Days before such Offering is scheduled to close, together with the form of subscription agreement (if any) for such Offering and any other documentation required to be completed by Australis as a subscriber to such Offering. In order to exercise the Participation Right, Australis must return the completed subscription agreement (if required) and related subscription documentation, together with certified funds for the aggregate subscription amount, to BaM (the “Exercise Notice”) not less than three (3) Business Days before the scheduled closing date of the Offering specified in the original notice (provided that, if the scheduled closing date is extended, the date on which Australis must deliver its documents and subscription funds will be extended for the same period) (the “Notice Period”), failing which the Participation Right in respect of that Offering will expire.
3.3 The Participation Right will expire at such time as Australis holds less than 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares.
3.4 The Participation Right will not extend to securities issued in conjunction with: (i) the grant or exercise of stock options and other similar issuances pursuant to any share incentive plan of BaM and other share compensation arrangements, (ii) the exercise of warrants and other convertible securities issued by BaM, (iii) a plan of arrangement, merger, business combination, take-over bid or other acquisition of the business, securities or assets of a third party; provided that, in the event that Australis’ ownership interest in the Common Shares on a fully-diluted basis is diluted as a result of issuances of securities as contemplated in this Section 3.4, then for the purposes of calculating the number of Offered Securities that Australis will be entitled to purchase under the Participation Right, securities issued under this Section 3.4 will be excluded from the calculation of Australis’ ownership interest, such that Australis will be entitled to participate in the Offering to increase its ownership interest in the Common Shares on a fully-diluted basis to what it would have been if no securities were issued as contemplated in this Section 3.4.
3.5 If BaM receives an Exercise Notice from Australis within the Notice Period, BaM will:
(a) subject to the receipt and continued effectiveness of all required approvals (including any applicable approval(s) of the CSE, any required approvals under Applicable Securities Laws and any required shareholder approval);
(b) subject to the issuance to Australis or its Affiliate of Common Shares or other Offered Securities being exempt from prospectus and registration requirements under Applicable Securities Laws; and
(c) subject to the completion of the relevant Offering, issue to Australis, against payment of the subscription price payable in respect thereof, that number of Common Shares or other Offered Securities, as applicable, set forth in the Exercise Notice.

-8- |
3.6 If BaM is required by the CSE (if applicable) or otherwise to seek shareholder approval for the issuance of the Offered Securities to Australis or its Affiliate, then BaM will call and hold a meeting of its shareholders to consider the issuance of the Offered Securities to Australis as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any event such meeting will be held within 75 days after the date that BaM is advised that it will require shareholder approval, and will recommend approval of the issuance of the Offered Securities and will solicit proxies in support thereof.
Nomination of Directors
3.7 For as long as Australis owns at least 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, Australis will be entitled to nominate one (1) director to the Board. If Australis exercises all of the Warrants purchased in the Financing and converts all Debentures, Australis will be entitled to nominate a second (2nd) director to the Board. For as long as Australis maintains at least 25% of the issued and outstanding Common shares of BaM, Australis will be entitled to maintain two (2) directors on the Board, provided that each director nominee must meet the requirements of applicable corporate, securities and other laws and the rules of the CSE. If permitted by applicable law and CSE rules, BaM will appoint such director(s) to the Board. In respect of any meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be elected, BaM will take all actions necessary and advisable to ensure that (i) proxies are solicited by or on behalf of BaM in favour of the election of the director nominees nominated in accordance with this Section 3.7 and (ii) every such nominee is endorsed and recommended in the applicable management information circular and other proxy solicitation materials provided by or on behalf of BaM to shareholders. BaM will take all other commercially reasonable actions necessary to permit the election or appointment to the Board of such nominees. BaM will notify Australis when such thresholds are achieved, and at least twenty (20) Business Days prior to the dissemination of materials for an annual meeting of shareholders, to allow Australis to identify its nominees (which Australis will provide to BaM at least five (5) Business Days prior to the dissemination of such materials).
Purchase of Additional Common Shares in Connection with Business Acquisition of Investment within the State of Ohio
3.8 In connection with the closing of any business acquisition and/or investment in the State of Ohio, Australis will be entitled to purchase such number of Common Shares that will enable Australis to maintain the same ownership interest in the Common Shares, on a fully diluted basis, that it holds prior to any such business acquisition and/or investment in the State of Ohio at a purchase price per Common Share equal to the greater of $0.40 and the maximum permitted discount allowable under the policies of the CSE. Additional investment by Australis will include 100% warrant coverage.

(f) provide to Australis such information regarding BaM and its business as is required to be included in an annual information form or any other report required to be filed by Autralis with one or more securities regulators.

EXERCISE OF WARRANTS

-3- |
Effect of Exercise of Warrants
4.2 Upon surrender and payment as aforesaid, the shares so subscribed for will be deemed to have been issued, and the Holder will be deemed to have become the holder of such shares on the date of such surrender and payment, and such shares will be issued at the Exercise Price as may be adjusted in the events and in the manner described herein.
4.3 Within 10 business days after surrender and payment as aforesaid, the Company will forthwith cause to be delivered to the person in whose name the shares are directed to be registered as specified in such Warrant Exercise Form, or if no such direction is given, the Holder, a certificate for the appropriate number of shares not exceeding those which the Holder is entitled to purchase pursuant to the Warrant Certificate surrendered.
Subscription for Less than Entitlement
4.4 The Holder may purchase a number of shares less than the number which the Holder is entitled to purchase pursuant to the surrendered Warrant Certificate. In the event of any purchase of a number of shares less than the number which can be purchased pursuant to this Warrant Certificate, the Holder, upon exercise thereof, will, in addition to certificates representing shares issued on such exercise, and be entitled to receive a new Warrant Certificate in respect of the balance of the shares which the Holder was entitled to purchase pursuant to the surrendered Warrant Certificate but which were not then purchased.
Warrants for Fractions of Shares
4.5 To the extent that the Holder is entitled to receive on the exercise or partial exercise thereof a fraction of a share, such right may be exercised in respect of such fraction only in combination with another Warrant which in the aggregate will entitle the Holder to receive a whole number of shares.
Expiration of Warrants
4.6 After the Expiry Date, all rights under the Warrants will wholly cease and terminate, and the Warrants will thereupon be void and of no effect.
Exercise Price
4.7 The price per share which must be paid to exercise a Warrant is the Exercise Price, as may be adjusted in the events and in the manner described herein.
PART 5
ADJUSTMENTS
Adjustments
5.1 If and whenever the Shares will be subdivided into a greater or consolidated into a lesser number of shares, or in the event of any payment by the Company of a stock dividend (other than a dividend paid in the ordinary course), or in the event that the Company conducts a rights offering to its shareholders, the exercise price will be decreased or increased proportionately as the case may be. Upon any such subdivision, consolidation, payment of a stock dividend or rights offering, the number of shares deliverable upon the exercise of a Warrant and the exercise price of the Warrant will be increased or decreased proportionately as the case may be.
-4- |
5.2 In case of any reclassification of the capital of the Company, or in the case of the merger, reorganization or amalgamation of the Company with, or into any other company (including, for greater certainly, any triangular or three-cornered amalgamation to which the Company is party) or of the sale of substantially all of the property and assets of the Company to any other company (in each case, a “Corporate Event”), each Warrant will, after such Corporate Event, confer the right to purchase that number of shares or other securities or property of the Company or of the company resulting from such Corporate Event, or to which such sale will be made, as the case may be, which the Holder would then hold if the Holder had exercised the Holder’s rights under the Warrant before the Corporate Event; and in any such case, if necessary, appropriate adjustments will be made in the application of the provisions set forth in this Part 5 with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the Holders to the end that the provisions set forth in this Part 5 will thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonably be in relation to any Shares or other securities or property thereafter deliverable on the exercise of a Warrant.
5.3 In case of any Corporate Event which results in Warrants becoming exercisable for shares, securities or other property of a corporate entity other than the Company, such corporate entity may elect to deliver to the Holder a new warrant certificate in the name of such corporate entity reflecting the terms of the Warrants, as adjusted pursuant to Section 5.2, and upon receipt of such replacement warrant certificate this Warrant Certificate will be deemed cancelled.
5.4 The adjustments provided for in this Part 5 are cumulative.
Determination of Adjustments
5.5 If any question will at any time arise with respect to any adjustments to be made under this Part 5, such question will be conclusively determined by the Company’s auditor, or, if the Company’s auditor declines to so act, any other chartered accountant in Vancouver, British Columbia that the Company may designate (acting reasonably) and who will have access to all appropriate records, and such determination will be binding upon the Company and the Holder.
Resale Restrictions
5.6 This Warrant and the Shares to be issued upon its exercise have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), or the securities laws of any state of the United States. This Warrant may not be exercised in the United States, or by or for the account or benefit of a U.S. person or a person in the United States, unless (i) the Shares are registered under the U.S. Securities Act and the applicable laws of any such state, or (ii) an exemption from such registration requirements is available, and (iii) the holder has complied with the requirements set forth in the Warrant Exercise Form attached hereto as Appendix B. “United States” and “U.S. person” are as defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act (“Regulation S”).

PART 6
COVENANTS BY THE COMPANY
Reservation of Shares
6.1 The Company will reserve, and there will remain unissued out of its authorized capital, a sufficient number of shares to satisfy the rights of purchase provided for in all Warrants from time to time outstanding.
PART 7
RESTRICTION ON EXERCISE
Compliance with Securities Laws
7.1 Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, no Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of any Warrant if the issuance of such securities would constitute a violation of the securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction, and the certificates evidencing the Shares thereby issued may bear such legend as may, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, be necessary in order to avoid a violation of any securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction or to comply with the requirements of any stock exchange on which the Shares of the Company are listed, provided that, at any time, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, such legends are no longer necessary in order to avoid a violation of any such laws, or the holder of any such legended certificate, at that holder’s expense, provides the Company with evidence satisfactory in form and substance to the Company (which may include an opinion of legal counsel satisfactory to the Company) to the effect that such holder is entitled to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares in a transaction in which such legends are not required, such legended certificate may thereafter be surrendered to the Company in exchange for a certificate which does not bear such legend.

The Company agrees to inform Advisor upon becoming aware that any of the Information is materially inaccurate, incomplete or misleading during the Term and the Company agrees that Advisor bears no responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the Information and that Advisor will be using and relying on the Information without performing independent verification or evaluation of any part of the Information.
The Company acknowledges that any written or oral advice that Advisor provides in connection with this Agreement and the Services is exclusively for use by the Board of Directors and senior management of the Company and may not be disclosed to any third party or circulated or referred to publicly without Advisor’s prior written consent.
6. Potential for Conflicts of Interest. The Company acknowledges and understands that Advisor may currently represent or may represent in the future other clients that operate in the Company’s industry that the Company may view as a competitor. Advisor’s representation of any of its clients (past, present and future) will not limit, in any way the Company’s obligation under this Agreement and the Advisor agrees that he will not take any actions which could reasonably be perceived as competing against the Company.
7. Indemnification. The Company agrees to the provisions with respect to its indemnification of Advisor as set forth in Annex A, which is incorporated by reference into this Agreement.
8. Miscellaneous.

Any notice required or permitted by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed effective: (i) upon personal delivery or by email; (ii) upon confirmed transmission by telecopy or telex; or (iii) three (3) business days after deposit by registered first class mail, postage prepaid.
(d) Choice of Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws.
(e) Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties hereto agree to renegotiate such provision(s) in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision(s), then: (i) such provision(s) shall be excluded from this Agreement; (ii) the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision(s) were so excluded; and (iii) the balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

ANNEX A: INDEMNIFICATION
The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Advisor (the “Indemnified Party”) from and against any losses, claims, damages and liabilities, joint or several (collectively, “Damages”), to which such Indemnified Party may become subject in connection with or otherwise caused by or arising from any transaction contemplated by this Agreement or the engagement of or performance of services by the Indemnified Party thereunder and will reimburse the Indemnified Party for all reasonable fees and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) (collectively, “Expenses”) as incurred in connection with investigating, preparing, pursuing or defending any threatened or pending claim, action, proceeding or investigation (collectively, the “Proceedings”) arising therefrom, whether or not the Indemnified Party is a formal party to such Proceeding; provided, that the Company will not be liable to any such Indemnified Party for any Damages and related Expenses to the extent that any Damages are found to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Party. The Company also agrees the Indemnified Party will not have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to the Company or any person asserting claims on behalf of the Company arising out of or in connection with any transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the engagement of or performance of services by any Indemnified Party thereunder except to the extent that any Damages are found to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party.
Promptly after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice or commencement of any Proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought, the Indemnified Party will notify the Company in writing of the receipt or commencement thereof; provided, that the failure so to notify the Company will not relieve the Company from any liability which the Company may have on account of this indemnity or otherwise, except to the extent the Company has been materially prejudiced by such failure. The Company may at its option assume the defense of such Proceeding and in such event will provide counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. In any Proceeding assumed by the Company to which the Indemnified Party is requested or required to participate, the Indemnified Party may, but need not, retain separate counsel at its expense to assist the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense of such Proceedings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party will have the right to assume the defense of a Proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought and to retain separate counsel, at the Company’s expense, if (i) the Company has failed to assume the defense of such Proceeding in a prompt manner or (ii) the Indemnified Party has been advised by its own counsel that there exists actual or potential conflicting interests between the Company and the Indemnified Party, including the availability of one or more legal defenses which are different from or in addition to those available to the Company. In any event, the Company will not, in connection with any Proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related Proceedings in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the Expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to local counsel) for all Indemnified Parties unless the defense of one Indemnified Party is unique or separate from that of another Indemnified Party subject to the same claim or action.
-5- |
The Company agrees not to enter into any waiver, release or settlement of any proceeding (whether or not Advisor or any other Indemnified Party is a formal party to such Proceeding) in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder without the prior written consent of Advisor (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld), unless such waiver, release or settlement includes an unconditional release of Advisor and each Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such Proceeding. No Indemnified Party shall enter into any waiver, release or settlement of any proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder without the prior written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).
The indemnity, reimbursement and contribution obligations of the Company hereunder will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to any Indemnified Party and will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Company or an Indemnified Party. The provisions hereunder will survive the modification, termination or expiration of this Agreement.
